Ok Saroy Presidential Palace

This palace served as the official workplace of the President of Uzbekistan from 1991 to 2016. It now functions as a museum where visitors can tour the reception halls and view the interior design used during this period of the country's modern history.

Getting There

The palace is located in Tashkent. From the city centre, it is most efficient to use a taxi or a ride-sharing app. The journey typically takes 15 to 20 minutes depending on traffic conditions.
